Ferrari's Bold Shift Towards Electric Vehicles by 2030
Ferrari's Vision for a Sustainable Future
Ferrari N.V. (NYSE:RACE) has raised its 2025 projections, showcasing a commitment to innovation and sustainability. The luxury sports car manufacturer has outlined ambitious goals in its comprehensive plan for the decade ahead, especially emphasizing its shift towards electric vehicles (EVs).
Updated Financial Guidance for 2025
In a significant update, Ferrari has adjusted its revenue forecast for 2025 to exceed 7.1 billion euros (approximately $8.3 billion), a notable increase from earlier estimates. The company's adjusted EBITDA is set to reach at least 2.72 billion euros, improving from previous expectations, alongside a targeted adjusted earnings per share (EPS) of 8.80 euros, up from 8.60 euros.
Aiming for 40% Margin by 2030
Looking ahead to 2030, Ferrari envisions net revenues of around 9.0 billion euros ($10.5 billion), reflecting a steady compound annual growth rate of about 5%. This growth will be largely driven by the sports car segment and innovative activities that enhance customer engagement.
The company aims to achieve an EBITDA of at least 3.6 billion euros by the decade's conclusion, aiming for a robust EBITDA margin of at least 40%. Such a trajectory will support a cumulative industrial free cash flow of approximately 8.0 billion euros from 2026 to 2030, although this will be partially countered by expected capital expenditures of about 4.7 billion euros.
Strengthening Shareholder Returns
Ferrari is also focused on maximizing shareholder returns, unveiling a strategy to increase its dividend payout ratio to 40% of adjusted net profit. This approach is expected to deliver around 3.5 billion euros in total dividends distributed between 2027 and 2031.
Moreover, the company plans to initiate a share repurchase program amounting to 3.5 billion euros, set to commence in 2026 and extend through the end of the strategic plan period.
Dynamic Product Pipeline
On the product side, Ferrari has made impressive strides, successfully launching 14 out of its planned 15 models since 2022. The strategic vision anticipates an average of four new model launches annually between 2026 and 2030.
By 2030, the company's portfolio is expected to consist of a balanced powertrain mix: 40% traditional internal combustion engines (ICE), 40% hybrids, and 20% fully electric vehicles. This transition aligns with their unveiling of the chassis and powertrain for the Ferrari Elettrica, the brand's inaugural electric vehicle, with deliveries slated for late 2026.
Commitment to Sustainability
Sustainability stands at the forefront of Ferrari's operations. The iconic manufacturer aims to enhance its V6, V8, and V12 engines while adapting to alternative fuels to meet global regulations. The firm has set ambitious targets to reduce Scope 1 and 2 emissions by at least 90% and is committed to achieving carbon neutrality.
Additionally, Ferrari has revised its goal for Scope 3 emissions, aiming for a minimum reduction of 25% by 2030 based on 2024 levels. This will be achieved through innovative solutions such as incorporating recycled aluminum in its engines and persistent collaboration across the supply chain.
Notably, Ferrari has recently opened its new “e-building” in Maranello, dedicated to the in-house production of vital electrification components. Future expansions include tailor-made centers in Tokyo and Los Angeles, alongside the construction of a new paint shop, all set for 2027.
Market Performance
As of the latest trading session, RACE shares reflected a notable drop of 14.13%, with shares traded at $411.50. Despite this short-term volatility, the long-term strategy indicates Ferrari's resilient commitment to growth and sustainability.
